There are some fundamental wisdom that goes into making and increasing money. Remember, money is not the essence but rather, it is an instrument for satisfying basic needs.
WHAT ARE THEN MY BASIC NEEDS?
The bible says “Godliness with contentment is great gain”. There are some fundamental lies that we have absorbed as the truth. For instance, it’s a lie that what makes you better appreciated and respected is when you have the so-called “FLASHY STUFF” like say a $100,000 diamond ring, driving the latest posh car or living in an exclusive elitist estate.
The true definition of man is not in the things he own; rather the true definition of a man is in who he is. Who you are determines what you own and not otherwise.
So, start asking yourself the basic question; what do I truly need? Ability to correctly know what you need impacts a sense of seriousness and responsibility which makes you to effectively and judiciously apply your income towards satisfying your needs. Never get caught in the web of trying to show forth; wanting to get things to make yourself appreciated, wanted or revered. Such things will never last long and you will constantly find yourself running to keep getting things that will keep you more indebted until you finally burn out.
Rather, be wise. Know what your real need is, save more and invest “saved income” on good, solid and tested investment package(s).
